Harry Van Dyne, in Harper's Magazine.
I w int books not to pass the time,
but to fill it with beautiful thoughts
and images, to enlarge my world, lo
give me new friends in the spirit, to
pusfTy my idcalj und make them clear,
to Aow roe the local color of unknown
regions and the bright stars of Immor
tal truth.
I w'sh lo go abroad, to hear new
es, to meet new people, to get a i
fresh point of view, to revisit other
age?, to fi5!en to the oracles of Delphi
and drink keep of the springs of Pieria.
The only wri:er who can tell me any
thing of real value about my familiar
environment is the genius who shows
me that after all it is not familiar, but
strange, wonderful, crowded with se
crets unguessed and posibllitiea unreal
ized. The two things best worth writing
about in poetry and fiction are the sym
bols of nature and the passions of the
human heart. I want also an essayist
who will clarify life by gentle illumi
nation a"d lambent humor : a philoso
pher who will help ma see the reason
of things apparently unreasonable; a
historian who will show me how peo
ples have risen and fallen, and a biog
rapher who will let me touch the hand
of the great and the good. This is
how real books help to educate in the
school of life.

HEAVY DOWUPOUR OFTEN THE
BESULT OF BATTLE.
The Fact Has Been Koted to Many
. .
of the World's Historic
flicts Notable In
stances. ICvpr since hostilities In the far east
nave reached the stage where the great
uns and heavy ordnance play a lead
ing part In the game, the information
that the operations of the nussiaa iuiu
Japanese armies have practically come
to a standstill owing to the "heavy
rainfalls" and almost impassable roads
In consequence thereof. Is making its
reappearance in the daily papers at
short intervals. Almost every oispaicu
from the seat of war Deanng news
of this character ascribes this "heavy
downpour" to the prevailing "rainy
season," and predicts that at its close
the campaign will be continued with
renewed vigor.
The war and navy departments ai
Washington are close observers of
events at the front, and among other
points which attract their particular
attention is that of the weather con
ditions accompanying the operations
of the two forces, states the Chicago
Chronicle. Official records show that
almost every important action since
gun, cannon and mortar have become
factors In warfare was accompanies
or followed by thunderstorms or heavy
rainfalls: that. In fact, the contlnuoue
discharge of firearms and heavy ord
nance was the direct cause of this nat
ural phenomenon, and that the time
or season of the year had no, or at
least little, bearing in the matter, since
experiments and observations estab
lished the fact that heavy bombard
ments have transformed "dry seasons
into veritable "seas of rain and mud."
The battle of Buena Vista, Mexico,
according to records in the war de
partment, took place on February 22
and 23, 1847. This was in the dry
season in that country; there had been
no rain for several months before the
battle and therm was none for several
months after. Three showers, how
ever, followed fee first day's engage
ment, two of which were specially re
markable. On the 22d, about one or
two hours after the severe cannonad
ing that took place between eight and
ten a. m., there was a most violent
rainfall for some ten or fifteen min
utes. Again in the afternoon, at about
the same Interval after another period
of heavy cannonading, another violent
shower of rain fell.
The fact before mentioned, that no
rain had fallen for months before the
battle, and that none fell for months
after at that place, is almost proof
positive not only that the cannonading
caused the rain, but that cannonading
will bring rain at a time when the
atmospheric conditions are apparent
ly in the highest degree unfavorable
to the production of that phenomenon
through the ordinary operations of na
ture. The battle of Palo Alto, Mexico, on
May 8, 1846, also fought in the dry
season, was also followed by rain.
The battle or siege of Monterey was
fought September 21 to 23, 1846, which,
Hi e the dates before mentioned, was
in the dry season. The morning of the
21st was bright and beautiful, but
soon after the storming of the two
forts, Faderaclon and Boldado, a vio
lent storm came up," and to its "un
broken peltings" Gen. Worth and the
second division were exposed through
out the night
The battle of Contreas was fought
on August 19, 1847, at a season when
rains were very infrequent. "The bat
tle raged furiously, and for more than
three hours the entire force -was un
der a heavy fire. Night at length put
an end to the conflict, and a cold rain
soon afterward began to fall In tor
rents." The battle of Churubusco was
fought the next day, which was bright
and clear. The day after it rained
heavily. The battle of Molino del
Rey, fought on September 8, 1847, was
also followed In the afternoon and
evening by a hard rain, as was the
battle of Chepultepec, which was
fought on September 13, 1847.
In the civil war the occurrence of the
phenomenon under discussion was fre
quent. The battle of Big Bethel" may
be mentioned as an early instance.
This battle, fought in eastern Virginia
on June 10, 1861, was soon followed
by a copious rain. Incessant rains at
tended Gen. McClellan's campaign in
western Virginia in July, 1861. His
troops "had four separate engagements
on four days, and before the close of
each violent rains fell." The battle
of Rich Mountain, fought on July 10,
was one of these, and was followed by
one or two rainy days.
The following engagements, which
took place in that part of the coun
try later in the same year, were also
each followed quickly by rain: Bat
tie of Carnifax Ferry, August 10, 1861;
battle of Cheat Mountain, September
13 and 14, 1861; battle of Green Brier,
October 3, 1861; battler of Alleghany
Summit, December 12, 186L None of
these is classed as great battles, but
the firing was apparently sufficient to
bring rain. The first battle of Bull
Run was fought on July 21, 1861. The
day was bright and clear all through,
but the next day was one of drenching
rain.

earth's real Bohemians.
Roamers of the World's Highways
Who Have Neither Home Nor
Country.
A race of people known in Europe
as the Romanlchels, are the real Bo
hemians of the earth. In their pride
of race they sometimes simply call
themselves Roma, meaning the Men.
In this country we call them gypsies,
says Medical Talk for the Home.
For centuries they have passed
along the roads of every nation, In
their rolling houses. They roam from
place to place, have no fixed habita
tion or native country. The Bohe
mian is born in a wagon, at any place
along the road. In any country through
which they happen to be passing. His
life Is spent on the road. He has no
home, no country. He dies as be was
born, any place, any country.
sThe Bohemian has Jealously pre
served his own language, and scorns
the customs of every country. Inde
pendence and liberty. In the open air,
that is the life for him. His cart Is
his only house, and in this he eats
and drinks, smokes, plays his music,
rests and sleeps. In this cart the chil
dren are born, the sick are nursed, and
finally in the same cart the Bohemian
dies.
The Romanlchels are not bandits nor
brigands. They will not steal or plun
der unless pushed to the last extreme
by hunger. They depend largely on
charity, but also follow certain trades
which are suitable to their indolence
and Independence, that of horse-trader
being preferred. Fortune telling Is
a remunerative profession, as through
out all Europe they are supposed to
be able to predict without failure the
future, and to be able to read the hand
and the skies.
They are a happy, indolent, content
ed, roving race of people. They ig
nore all the customs and proprieties
of civilized life, and go their own
sweet way from place to place, year
In and year out
When any of their number Is sick,
no physician is called. They do their
own doctoring. They have a wide
knowledge of the different herbs that
are curative of certain diseases, and
they make use only of these simple
remedies. They do not contaminate
or abuse their bodies by taking all
sorts of coal-tar preparations and min
eral drugs. Vegetable doctors are
they, pure and simple.
They live close to nature. Fresh
air all day. all night Sunshine all day.
Walking barefooted on the ground,
making their bed oftentimes on the
grassy earth. Eating, drinking, sleep
ing, when the natural instincts de
mand. A free, easy-going, natural and
healthy life.
So near to nature do they live that
there Is little sMmess among them.
Even the women in childbirth do not
need a physician. What to the civ
ilized woman Is a dreaded period of
Intense suffering Is a matter of hut
little moment to the gypsy woman.
When her child is born, if the tribe Is
on the march, she may be delayed a
few hours by the wayside, but within
a day or two at most, with her new
born babe cradled on her back, she
proceeds on the Journey with the rest
of the family.
It Is not a civilized life, nor the
highest form of life to live, but at
least It Is a natural life, physically.
If the civilized woman and the civ
ilized man could only learn to make
use of the natural elements, as the
gypsies do, we would have a stronger
race of men and women physically and
mentally. The strenuous life that
the average American lives Is not con
ducive to the highest state of health.
What we need is more outdoor life.
Less business care and worry. Less
troubling over the bread-and-butter
question, and more enjoyment of the
simple pleasures and blessings that
are ours for the taking.
A WOMAN PAYING TELLER.
One Whose Skill in Counting Money
Has Gained for Her a Good
Position,
A woman paying teller Is the novelty
that has been Introduced In a Milwau
kee bank. The woman is young, pretty
and expert In her new position she
is succeeding wonderfully, affirms a
correspondent.
"This woman," said the cashier of
the bank, "was' hired by me because
by actual test she proved that she could
count money faster than any man I
know. She counted $1,000, in a mixed
packet of sliver and notes, in five min
utes. It took our besf man teller six
minutes to count a similar packet
In the treasury department at Wash
ington women do all the money count
ing. They were introduced Into the de
partment by Gen. Spinner in a season
when men were scarce. It did not take
them long to prove that their slender
and supple fingers could count money
with a speed that no man ever equalled,
and eventually. In this line of work,
they ousted the men altogether.
v A certain sheet of paper the sheet
out of which bank notes are made is
counted In the treasury department by
women 52 times. An expert can count
90,000 of these sheets a day.
"Our woman paying teller here
learned to count in the treasury de
partment, and she learned well.
"Often, for a Joke, she has a count
ing contest with one of the men. In
not one of these contests has she yet
been beaten."

THE PASS WAS LIMITED.
What a Heartless Joker Caused an
Illinois Man to Go Through at
the World's Pair.
A world's fair commissioner, once
considered of good character, is boasting
of the champion dirty trick of the year.
He was In Kansas City lately and told
about it at every opportunity, says the
Star.
"Just as I was going through a pass
gate into the grounds one day last week,"
he said, "a man behind me said Say,
my friend, I see you're using a pass
Yes,' I said; Tve got a concession on the
Pike.' Well, I've got a pass, too I'm a
member of the Illinois legislature and I
don't know Just what it calls for.'
"'Calls for?" I said, half Jokingly. It
calls for everything admission, food,
drink, shave, balooh rides anything.'
" 1 wasn't sure it was only for the
gate,' he said, as he went into a barber
shop concession. I decided I needed a
shave, too, and before I sat down I gave
the barber 50 cents, telling him It was
for me and my friend. I was putting on
my collar when he arose from the chair
and drew out his pocketbook containing
his pass. 'That's all right.' said my bar
ber. 'All paid for.'
"Now, that's mighty nice of these
people,' he said, putting his pocketbook
back. 'I s'posed a pass was good for
meals, all right but wouldn't a-thought
It would get you a shave. Might as well
have had my hair cut'
"All I saw him do after that was to go
Into one of the highest-priced restau
rants on the grounds. I waited nearly
an hour before I heard noises from the
inside. Then I went away; I didn't
want him to see me. The manager of
the cafe told me about It that afternoon.
The man from Illinois had ordered 3.10
worth of food, had eaten It and, showing
his pass, started to go out We got his
coin, all right,' the restaurant man said,
but he put up an awful holler, and said
he would see Francis about It I wonder
what was going on In his head? "
HE HAD TO 8HINE THEM.

Little Joke, But It Was
Turned On Him.

"It was in the early days In Montana,
when cow punchers with high-heeled
boots, big sombreros, and a regular ar
senal of six shooters were plentiful,"
said the veteran travelrag man as he
cocked his foot up on his knee and took
a puff at a black cigar. "Something
went wrong with the engine of the train
I was on, and I found myself in a small
frontier town, with several hours to
spend and nothing In particular to do. I
started out to see the town. As I walked
down the main street a cowboy dressed
in his Sunday best and a shine on his
high top boots that would hav put a
plate glass mirror out of business came
sauntering down the street As he start
ed over a crossing the only sprinkling
cart the town could boast of came along.
The driver eyed the boots, and with a
sly smile pulled the string Just in time
to drench the boots from top to bottom
and completely spoil the shine.
"Quick a a flash the cow puncher
pulled his 'forty-five' from its holster
and ordered the driver to crawl down
from his perch. Caling a bootblack, he
made the driver get on his knees, take
the shining outfit and shine both boots
from the soles to the tips. The driver
flldnt seem to fancy performing the
menial service, but the muzzle of that re
volver didnt look good to the practical
Joker, and he got busy in a hurry. When
the Job was finished the cowboy made
the driver pay the bootblack 50 cents for
the blacking he had used. Bhoving his
gun back into its holster, the cowboy
sauntered leisurely down the street, a
satisfied smile playing on his counten
ance. The driver mounted his seat and
drove away, a sadder but wiser man.'
HE WAS ONLY A PRISONER
Bat the Caller Ascribed to Him the
Dignity of the Sheriff's
Assistant.
The primitive way in which legal pun
ishment is administered in some locali
ties had a funny illustration not long
since, when I visited a country town
within a comparatively short distance
of Boston. As I had a little time on my
hands, relates the Saunterer in the Bud
get, I thought I would Inspect the Jail,
and so knocked at the portals of that
place of iron bars for admittance. My
summons was not immediately an
swered, and I began to think that all the
inmates of the institution were asleep,
but finally a door opened and a head
was thrust out, with the query:
"What yer want?"
"I'd like to see the sheriff, please,"
was the answer.
"Not in, gone down to the wharf.
Won't I do as well?"
"Yes, I suppose you will, for I only
want to look over this building, as I am
gathering some prison statistics.'
"TVtmA alnnar Mum naltt h.

It did not take long to see all that
was to be seen In the gloomy building,
and when I had completed my investi
gation. I said to my guide
"I suppose you are the sheriff's assist
ant" "Guess again." was the reply.
"That would be only a waste of time.
What are you, anyway?"
"Well," drawled the man in temporary
charge of affairs, "I'm only a prisoner."

LOYALTY OF THE JAPANESE
First Duty of the Subjects of the Mi
kado Is Always to Their
Emperor.
When we consider Japanese patriot
Ism, we must never lose sight of Its
great concomitant, loyalty to the em
peror. These two passions are so
closely united In the breast of an
ordinary Japanese, that he can hard
ly conceive of one without the other,
eays Nobushlge Amenomori, in At
lantic. When a Japanese says: "I
love my country." the great or even
the greater part of his idea of his
"country" is taken up In Importance
by the emperor and the imperial fam
ily. His duty to his country. con
ceived by him. Includes, first of all.
duty to his emperor. Moreover, to
hfm his country does" not mean simply
a group of islands with about 60,000,
000 of people living on them. His
forefathers and descendants are also
taken Into account To him the past,
present and future generations are
commingled into one. ... And the
ancestors he loves snd reveres were all
loyal to their emperors In their days;
so that he feels that he must be loyal
to his emperor, as they were to
theirs, if he means to prove himself
worthy of their race. This Is a sen
timent born with him. It is owing
to this deep-rooted feeling in the
people that, although several dalmyos
fought with one another during the
sixteenth century for the aggrandize
ment of their powers, yet none oi
them dared to aim at the imperial
throne. They obtained their ranks
and titles from the emperor then
reigning. The hereditary loyalty
of the people to the emperor, with
whose ancestors are associated their
own forefathers, is too stubborn a
sentiment to be trifled with and no
intelligent shogun attempted to dis
regard It
In many other countries kings and
emperors have to keep their pomp In
order to uphold their authority. Not
so hi Japan. The lower the im
perial pomp dwindles down, the
warmer and deeper Is the popular
sympathy. The people cannot hear
eetng the chief of their race in
wretchedness. They will eventually
rise up for him.
